(Received 22 January 2010; accepted 24 February 2010; online 3 March 2010)

The title compound, [Cu(C4H4NO3)2]n, exhibits a double-chain structure extending along [100]. The CuII atom, lying on an inversion center, is coordinated by two cyano N atoms from two 3-cyano-2-hydroxy­propionate ligands and two hydr­oxy O atoms and two carboxyl­ate O atom from two other two ligands in a distorted octa­hedral geometry. Inter­molecular C—H⋯O and O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds connect the chains into a three-dimensional structure.

Comment top

β-Hydroxynitriles are potentially important intermediates in the synthesis of complex organic compounds (Seo et al., 1994). The study of coordination polymers with β-hydroxynitrile is rarely reported according to Cambridge Structural Database. Herein we report the structure of the title compound.

In the title compound, the CuII atom, lying on an inversion center, is six-coordinated in a distorted octahedral geometry defined by two carboxylate O atoms and two hydroxy O atoms in the equatorial plane and two N atoms from the cyano groups in the axial positions (Table 1 and Fig. 1). Weak coordination between the CuII atom and the N atoms is indicated by a Cu—N distance of 2.545 (2) Å, due to Jahn-Teller effects. The bond lengths and angles are in normal ranges (Klein et al., 1982; Wang et al., 2009). Adjacent CuII centers are bridged by two ligands, forming a double-chain structure, which is further extended by intermolecular C—H···O and O—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 2) into a three-dimentional supramolecular structure.

Experimental top

2-Isoxazoline-3,5-dicarboxylic acid was synthesized according to the previously reported procedure (Conti et al., 2003). 3-Cyano-2-hydroxypropionic acid was obtained from 2-isoxazoline-3,5-dicarboxylic acid by selective cleavage of the N—O bond and decarboxylation under basic condition (Seo et al., 1994). A solution of Cu(NO3)2.3H2O (0.048 g, 0.2 mmol) in H2O (4 ml) was added to a solution of 3-cyano-2-hydroxypropionic acid (0.046 g, 0.4 mmol) in H2O (8 ml), then aqueous triethylamine (0.07 ml) was added dropwise to the above solution accompanied with stirring. The mixture was flitered and placed at room temperature. Blue block crystals of the title compound were obtained in three days (yield 0.046 g, 78% based on Cu).

Refinement top

C-bound H atoms were positioned geometrically and refined as riding atoms, with C—H = 0.98 (CH) and 0.97 (CH2) Å and with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C). The hydroxy H atom was found in a difference Fourier map and refined isotropically.
